Adena Friedman CEO of Nasdaq suggested Wednesday that the company could open a cryptocurrency exchange in the future.
The subject came up in an interview with CNBC, during which the CEO expressed openness to the idea.
These are the words of Adena Friedman at CNBC:
"If we do look at it and say 'it's time, people are ready for a more regulated market,' for something that provides a fair experience for investors... I believe that digital currencies will continue to persist it's just a matter of how long it will take for that space to mature. Once you look at it and say, 'do we want to provide a regulated market for this?' Certainly Nasdaq would consider it."
